Stiil feel the same...

It’s been about a month since I’ve been on depression and anxiety medicine and I still fell the same. I don’t cry or get super emotional like I use to but I still feel alone and judged. I still feel unworthy at times. I still get anxious every time I think of the day ahead. My doctor raised my Prozac dosage but like I said, I’m still feeling depressed 😔

Sometimes it takes longer than a month for some meds to kick it or that may not be the best med for you! Sometimes you have to go thru trials to see what best fits you!

Thank you

Yes time to kick in, or a change of meds which also needs time to kick in... I can't help thinking that depression usually takes time to get past, so the time anti depressants can take to work, could be the same as natural recovery time

Thanks! I hope it kicks in sooner than later!

Hi, I’m Denise and I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety since I was a young girl. Over the years, I’ve found a combination of prescription drugs, walking, meditation, and therapy (sometimes self-help reading or videos work.). Medication is only one part of it. You have to dig deep and find the root of each issue as it comes and then debrief and rewire your thinking; that’s where I find the meditation to be key.

Thanks Denise for the advice! I actually just finished working out! I felt an anxiety attack coming (from a disagreement between hubby and I) and i said I’m just gonna get on the treadmill to release all the negativity he was throwing at me. It helped me feel stronger and a little more confident in the progress.
